Brian Blase joins us today. He is the founder and president of Paragon Health Institute, a non-partisan, not-for-profit health policy research institute that focuses on free-market policy solutions so that patients can make more informed health care decisions.
Brian previously served as a special assistant for economic policy at the White House’s National Economic Council from 2017-2019.
In our conversation today, Brian and I discuss price transparency—what it means and the rules, regulation, and enforcement being implemented—and the importance of health policy institutes like Paragon and their work seeking to make sure that patients are informed when it comes to healthcare pricing and decisions.
